Hello All.  I have a very general, but strong, opinion to offer.  Aid work, 
whether emergency relief or development is incredibly hard to get right.  For 
that reason most of the aid organizations, even those with good reputations, 
are not doing a very good job of it.  The need is great, so good people take on 
more than they can deliver well; and things go badly.   One way to improve your 
chances is to specialize as much as possible, and to scale up only when most 
all the wrinkles have been smoothed out.  It's true the division between 
emergency and development is somewhat artificial, but that division is there to 
allow organizations to focus on what they hope to do well.   
2 cents please : )
